not talk about joe biden. who was kind of everywhere on the parade route, oh, they won't let me do this, he's running around, shaking hands, embodying joe biden to the fullest. joe biden dropped by the iowa state society ball on saturday night, he has been very open, frankly, as open as anybody, thinking about running, there's the footage, love him, joey b., 70 years old, 70 years young. he's been very open, sort of, about his interest in running for president, potentially. this is someone who has run for president twice in the past. he could have stopped by any number of state balls, correct? >> chris, at the very least, he is laying the groundwork for a potential 2016 bid. it's not a certain thing. we are going to see what hillary clinton does. if she decides she wants to run, i'm pretty sure the field will be completely cleared for her. but if she doesn't, joe biden wants to be in that conversation. maybe he runs, maybe he doesn't, but if you are even at least thinking about it, you're meeting with the governor of new hampshire, the democratic governor, you are chatting with folks from i

of policies that he and vice president biden have proposed for dealing with gun policies. and these policies get labeled liberal. but it turns out they are very popular. they are very, very, very widely popular. gallup just did a national poll on the whole list of proposal as that president obama and vice president biden have put forward on gun violence. bang high-capacity ammo clips. that gets majority support in this country. 54%. reinstating and strengthening the assault weapons ban we had for ten years that expired back in '04. majority support. look at that. 60% of the country wants that. making it so only the military and law enforcement can have so-called cop killer bullets, those armor-piercing bullets. 67% of the country supports that. and the numbers get higher from there. emergency response plans in schools. 69% support it. more cops. 70% support it. cracking down on straw purchases, right? where people buy a gun because they don't clear the background check but then they're really buying it for somebody who won't clear the background check. 75% of people support cracking down on

's the real problem. i thought it was interesting. vice president biden said he was not concerned about getting guns out of the hands of minute people. well, i'm the same way. i don't think we should take away from good people, law-abiding people, the right to own firearms. , and what we ought to focus on is where the real problem is. you look at some of the plays that have strict gun control. washington d.c. had the strongest gun control law in the country. ofsh the highest murder rate. they understand the issue is the people that pull the triggers on those guns ask trying to keep guns away from them. that's what we ought to be focused on, and the mentally ill part i do consider a productive step that hopefully something will come of. >> haley barbour, thank you very much, governor. thanks for joining us today. appreciate it. >>> coming up next, carolyn mccarthy, a gun violence victim, and one of the strongest advocates on capitol hill as joe biden takes the road on gun violence. and it's the best as i understandoff. tim geithner could have asked for. the market reactions to ed. this i

to -- vice president biden will make a presentation to the president next i would like to bring to your attention that on the imperative agenda i have a resolution commemorating the 150th anniversary of the emancipation proclamation; many of you know that the emancipation proclamation was issued by president abraham lincoln, january 1, 1863. one of the most influential documents that declared all persons held as slaves within the confederate territory are here for and henceforth held free. i just want to go on record publicly acknowledging 150 years. that is quite an accomplishment. today's actually the 84th anniversary of doctor martin luther king's birth. many people know who doctor king was, a clergyman, activist, husband, father, the most prominent promoter of nonviolence and civil disobedience; he received the nobel peace prize in 1964 in recognition of his nonviolence. only we discussing assault weapons ban ammunitions but acknowledging that today would have been doctor martin luther king's 84th birthday, a very prolific activist. i would like to recognize and former city

. gold hasn't gone up that much. >>> vice president joe biden talked to officials at virginia tech about background checks and mental health issues. >>> in arizona, nearly 50 hikers rescued after stranded in a national forest, trapped by raging floodwaters. rescue crews, searched for hours on foot and in the air, using infrared technology to make sure everyone got out. record rainfall near tucson caused that flooding. >>> back to the breaking news out of brazil. 220 people killed in a nightclub fire in santa maria. joining us is shasta darlington. do we know any more about what caused this fire? are they looking at the pyrotechnics? >> they stint haven't determined what caused it the acoustic foam caught fire. this was a large nightclub, could fit 3,000 people. they don't know how many were in at the time. but, unfortunately, the death toll keeps rising. i spoke to the coordinator of civil defense a short while ago, he said 90. when i called him back, he confirmed 220 bodies pulled out. the vast majority killed from asphyxiation, breathing in the smoke, not the flames themselves, the lig

obama and vice president joe biden meets with police chiefs from around the nation to discuss gun control regulation. chiefs from aurora colorado, oak creek and newtown, connecticut, all three towns that experience deadly massacres meet at the white house. the group will discuss the common sense policies president obama put forth after the shooting at sandy hook elementary school. eric holder and janet napalitano will be at the meeting. >> thousands of residents get a new voice in annapolis. >> darren swain will be sworn in. he will fill the seat tiffany allston once held. she was removed from office after a plea deal to settle two misconduct cases last year. swain served in the house from 1999 to 2003. he's an assistant vice president for alumni relations. nine after 11:00 now. coming up, new information out on the terrible accident in brazil. 200 people killed in a nightclub fire. three people behind bars. we'll tell you who was arrested in the last few hours. >> plus hillary clinton's last days on the job as secretary of state. is she providing any clues on her future? >> we fe

of america and this coming monday, the party really starts. hey, everybody, it's me, your vp joe biden and i'm inviting you to join me this monday at the dover speedway at dover, delaware for a little party called the biden bash, forget the inspirational speeches and this is fun. cotton candy, an amateur dog show, a bouncing castle. do you think you can jump higher than me, find out in the game i call, do you think you can jump higher than me and be sure to join me for my kung fu exhibition. biden time, objectioh! (laughter) >> i'd go to that. i think a child could jump higher than that. >> that was "saturday night live" last night. welcome back to "fox & friends" on this sunday morning, you know, one week from today, bars, family rooms across this country will be filled to capacity, hot wings, beer, because it's the super bowl-- baltimore ravens especially here. >> tucker: and jim cook to runs sam adams, what halloween is for nestle's, hershey, is super bowl. >> ainsley: and swimsuit models, wings, super bowl, anchoring that segment. >> clayton: that will be a tough day. san francisco, one

be better for the country, rather than just-- >> we've got to go, i can see joe biden, and i'm going to die and he's going to drill out any gold in my teeth. are you old enough to have gold in your teeth. >> sean: no, many i'm-- >> and liberty and-- >> i'm not against that. >> and in favor of growth, optimism and liberty, aggressively so. >> i'm with you. >> sean: i love a good fight. >> and it's freezing in here. >> sean: i'm sorry, i like it cold. you don't want me to sweat. that's all the time left this evening, thank you for being with us. let not your heart be troubled. greta is next to go on the record and we'll see you here tomorrow night. greta, take it away. >> tonight, the first big showdown of president obama's second term. it it just started with the g.o.p. insisting it's time for congress to finally do its job and you'll hear from senator rob portman and the news media telling president obama to go for the throat of the g.o.p. tonight he's fighting back and blaming his critics, all that and much more ahead. on the record starts right now. >> we should start with spending and de

flattered. >> t >> vice president biden in richmond, virginia on friday focused on background checks and vice president did not mention the ban on assault weapons. do you think that the ban iwas offered up as sacrafical lamb? >> no. the point is common sense gun safety legislation. that so many millions americans support at this time. and so, you have definitely had a change from where we were five, ten, 15 years ago. so, at this point, the nra, even the nra leadership is out of step with its own leadership and out of step with the majority of americans and there was a difference, i think it's important to say, there's a dichbs between the protection of rights and the protection of profits. nra leadership is trying to protect the profits not the rights of the leadership. >> if you notice, there's overwhelming support among americans for background checks. we have them as a matter of fact. but getting back to the assault weapons ban, it's significant that joe biden did not mention that. as senator majority lead harry reid said does not support a assault weapon's ban. one of the republ

ownership of firearms. >> geraldo: vice-president biden has come to you for advice to stop the violence. what did you tell him? >> let's strengthen the existing laws, if we can't enforce the old one. >> geraldo: this former marine has all the guns and ammo he heeds, but sees it as a final opportunity to prepare for the worst. >> if my stuff is stashed away. >> geraldo: you are set. >> i have been preparing for 10 years. >> reporter: hopefully, as a vet, you don't need it. >> you never know. >> >> reporter: there are only six states, including california that require background checks on everyone who bias a gun, whatever they buy it, whomever they buy it from. 33 states have done absolutely to close the so-called gun show loophole. here's how the loophole works. you have an assault rifle, an ar-15, you want to sell, you post a sign that says private sale, as a private party who plans not to sell as a business, you are exempt from the background check requirement whatsoever, you can sell that rifle to anyone you want to. >> geraldo: 33 states, charles manson could buy t. if gun control ad

whose have dealt firsthand with recent mass shootings. president obama and vice president joe biden will meet with the police chief of newtown, connecticut. the police chief from aurora, colorado, will talk about the 12 people killed in a movie theater shooting in july, part of the discussions the president is using to try to get political support for gun control. >> surprising revelation for president obama that could affect the debate over gun control. in an interview with the "new republic" he said he goes skeet shooting when he is at camp david. his young daughters do not shoot but guests pick up a shotgun and take aim at the clay pigeon as california senator feinstein introduces legislation to ban assault weapons in the wake of the deadly shooting rampage in connecticut. >> another twist in the 16-year-old ramsey case in colorado, a newspaper is reporting this morning that a grand jury voted to indict her parents in 1999 on charge of child abuse resulting in death but the prosecutor never signed the indictment. the entire ramsey family was cleared of any involvement in the murd

way that joe biden and others could not get themselves branded separately, they were thought of as somewhat candidates. you can see martin o'malley starting to do that and they're trying to figure out a way to find some room between them. he is known in a better light nationally. gov. martin o'malley has a good net worth and the two of them are pushing a very hard. is biden does not wrong, those are the types of names you can see popping up. -- if biden doesn't not run, those are who you can see. host: are there emerging politicians to watch that may not be getting as much coverage right now or emerging vice- presidential candidates? host: bob mcdonnell down in virginia -- guest: bob mcdonnell is very popular. they are doing things that are problematic though. sandoval could be a possibility. he's pro-abortion but works well across the aisle. martinez to do well in the southwest and had a few setbacks in the last few years. he is someone i would keep watching. and in colorado, he is just getting rave reviews. he is very well liked by democrats. persian for stronger gun contro

. perhaps of it a not so subtle message to his vp, joe biden, that maybe you shouldn't run. if it is between clinton and yourself, my endorsement, my direction for the country will be to vote for hillary clinton, not you. i saw both those things in the interview. i didn't see very much policy talk. it was a love fest. i think it was important that the last thing on tape of those two next to each other wasn't the debates that we saw earlier, but actually this love fest. >> well, speaking of love fests -- and, will cain, i'm sure you'll agree with me. during the benghazi hearings, democrat after democrat after democrat expressed their love for hillary clinton. is this sort of a well thought-out plan on the democratic side to prepare the way for 2016? >> well, as he's certainly suggesting, that, and i think it's hard to rebut the end message people are gleaning from this. it's interesting you bring up benghazi. because there's really no loser, there's no risk in this interview. president obama and hillary clinton would do this because it reflects well on both of them. they're both negotiating,

is diminishing a little bit after we conducted the poll after the shooting in newtown, connecticut. joe biden was very active in all this. he as well as homeland security janet napolitano and other top administration officials are going to richmond, virginia. they're going to be holding a town hall there on gun control. and he was talking about this yesterday as well. we'll talk more about that next hour, john. >> fantastic. great to see you this morning. >> thank you. >> nine minutes past the hour. more angry threats from north korea overnight. a statement from the country's unification committee warns of what they call physical counter measures against south korea if they directly participate in u.n. sanctions against the north. the statement calls seoul a puppet to the west and says the latest u.n. resolution passed earlier this week is equivalent to a declaration of war. >> rhode island could be the next state where same self couples can get married. house lawmakers approved a measure by a vote of 51-19. the bill has been introduced every year for 11 years there and this was the first tim

. last week, representative barbara introduced h.r. 274. in a recent letter to vice- president biden, he wrote the following. "i urge you to support a bipartisan proposals like the mental first aid act. we paid too high a price for this neglect." every day, we see the effects of our decades-long neglect. i urge you to take the advantage of this opportunity to make a long overdue investments in mental-health to make all americans live longer, more filled lives. thank you for the opportunity to speak. >> mr. chipman. >> thank you for allowing me to speak today. i retired from atf as a special agent following 25 years of public service. as a federal agent, i have been called many things. recently "time" magazine called us and gunfighters. although i carried a fire arm every day for 25 years, and never once considered myself a gunfighter. i was a crime fighter. hollywood has glamorized it. i was not an actor. i was a cop. i served in many roles, however my mission was clear. it was my job to prevent violent crime. when i arrested criminals, i knew i was preventing crime and making a differen

program. the policy was supported by the simpson-bowles commission, and it was part of the biden-cantor deficit reduction negotiations in 2011. in addition, the democratic members of the house ways and means committee included this idea as part of a set of cost sharing reforms in their 2011 deficit-reduction proposal. the president's own 2011 deficit-reduction package included a similar proposal to reduce costs associated with medigap insurance plans. once again, this is a policy that both democrats and republicans should be willing to get behind. number three, we need to simplify medicare beneficiary cost sharing while protecting seniors from catastrophic health costs. currently medicare and cost paying vary significantly depending on the type of service being provided. beneficiaries now have separate deductibles for inpatient care under part a and for out patient service under part b. this overly complex benefit structure is difficult for beneficiaries to and a half -- navigate. by streamlining the cost sharing and combining a single deductible for part a and part b, we can mak

. that is why all of us in the president, by the way, the vice president, president vice president biden, and those of us are fighting for this are going to spread the word to the corners of the country. nra members have been speaking out to get something done. these are good law-abiding citizens who want to hunt. they want to go duck hunting. and the guns that they use only allow three bullets. deer hunting depending on what state you are in allow five bullets. most hunters will tell you if you don't get it on the first try, you probably won't get it on the second one. yet we have these machines. we have a large magazines. they can take down 20 children in seconds. the only reason is that our first responders were there and the killer ended up taking his own life. some people will say that it still won't work. let me tell you why it will work. because if you don't have these guns and the large magazines on the shelves, they have done a terrific killings and wouldn't be able to go into a gun store and just buy them. they don't have the background to go and look to wear where the black ma

biden, gretchen, who will hold a round table at virginia commonwealth university today, joined by homeland security secretary janet napolitano and kathleen sebelius, the secretary of health and human services. and by some experts who worked on the virginia tech massacre in 2007 in which 32 people were killed. it aims to get lawmakers the support california diane feinstein reintroduced the assault weapons ban and calling for universal background checks on gun buyers. feinstein held a news conference with a display of the weapons her bill would ban. the future manufacture of the dealers could continue to sell existing stock. she was the president of the san francisco board of supervisors in the late 1970s when a former supervisor shot and killed another member of the board and the city's mayor, and feinstein was on the scene. >> i know the urge to arm yourself because that's what i did. i was trained in firearms. i'd walk to the hospital with my -- when my husband was sick. i carried a concealed weapon. i made the determination that if somebody was going to try to take me out, i

on the multinational stage. when vice president biden sat on this chair, he said on more than one occasion, good international relationships are always predicated on strong interpersonal relationships. i think we can all agree that you have set the highest standard for developing those relationships throughout your career, and as secretary of state, you will continue to strengthen those relationships on behalf of the president and the furtherance of american foreign policy. i'll have some questions later on policies and your views, including how you explain to world leaders how you could have been rooting for the boston red sox instead of what the world knows as the new york yankees as the team of the world, but let me say, mr. chairman, it's been a pleasure working with you and looking forward to continuing to work with you in the issues you've championed over the years. fighting global terrorism, preventing the spread of nuclear biological, chemical weapons, fighting for human rights and against hiv-aids around the world, fighting crime, corruption, drug trafficking and standing up, as you alw

of the nuanced approach necessary to effectively interact on a multinational stage. when vice president biden said in his chair, he said good international relationships are always predicated on strong interpersonal relationships. i think we can all agree that you have such a high standard for developing those relationships throughout your career and as secretary of state, you will continue to strengthen those relationships on behalf of the president. i will have some questions later on policies and your views, including how do explain to world leaders how you could of -- have been rooting for the boston red sox instead of what the world knows as the new york yankees as the team of the world, but it has been a pleasure working with you looking forward to -- you. looking forward to continuing to work with you any issues you have championed over the years. fighting global terrorism, preventing the spread of chemical weapons, fighting for human rights. fighting crimes for drug trafficking and standing up for the interest of foreign service around the world. should you be confirmed, and i know
